ICICI Securities Report

Strides Pharma Science Ltd.’s Q4 FY22 performance was above our estimates driven by strong recovery across business segments.

Revenue grew 9.0% QoQ to Rs 8.7 billion (our estimate: Rs 7.8 billion). U.S. revenue grew 15.8% QoQ to $44 million as against our estimate of $36 million.

Sequential improvement in gross margin coupled with operational leverage lifted Ebitda margin to 4.8% (up 420 bps QoQ).

Strides Pharma believes it can achieve $250 million sales in the U.S. in FY23 driven by new product launches (~20/year) including the integration of Endo Pharma portfolio.

Strides Pharma has announced a series of steps to be undertaken in FY23, which include debt reduction (~Rs 10 billion), inventory normalisation, cost reduction and unprofitable business exits.
